Beautiful. {dove review & giveaway}

I’m going to be honest here people, maybe even a little bit vain.
You know those ladies you hear about that just rave about how they LOOOOVE being pregnant and really feel better about their body when they are sporting a baby bump as compared to when they are not pregnant?

Yeah. That’s not me.

I know that pregnancy is a gift that many people want and I certainly don’t take it for granted, but that doesn’t mean I don’t struggle at times. I miss my waist. All of my wonderful clothes. My clear skin. Stepping out with confidence and feeling like I've got it goin' on. Don’t get me wrong. Most days I still feel pretty, but it just takes a little bit more effort these days than it used too.

One of the ways I’ve been working on feeling better about myself is from the very beginning of my beauty routine. I’ve had the opportunity to start using Dove® Visible Care® Softening Creme Body Wash. Really, I’m mostly a skeptic when it comes to body washes and lotions that promote some type of change to your skin. This time though, I was blown away from the very first use! No joke, my skin truly felt softer and replenished after the first time I used it. After a week of using it, I can now see not only a difference in the softness of my skin, but in my overall skin quality too. I’ve had lots of random cuts and scraps that have shown up out of no where during this pregnancy and they seem to have stopped since I started using this product. {I knew it gives you visibly more beautiful skin in just one week, but this was even more than I expected!}

Most of my friends are on a budget just like Cody and I. This nice thing is that this is an inexpensive way to splurge on yourself. When you’re needing a simple way to make yourself feel more beautiful and have visibly more beautiful skin from a body wash, try one of these new premium body washes from Dove. Along with Softening, there’s Renewing to nourish and replenish skin and Toning to help promote skin’s elasticity and strength. {You know I’ll be picking this up after Griffin arrives!} Visit Dove's website to learn more about these body washes and Dove® VisibleCare® to get a coupon for $1 off!
